Quests, Achievements, Reputations, Pets, Stats, Skills, Crafts, Spells, Talents all had
the ghost-gated PLAYER_ALIVE scan (DEBUG 2025-07-21 leftover): they only scanned when the
player died and released spirit, so their data never populated on a normal login. Now
scan once per session at login (addon.coaScannedThisSession guard), matching the earlier
DataStore_Characters/_Inventory fix. This is why reputations/recipes/quests/pets/etc were
'not saved'.
- Hardening sweep across DataStore_* (softened crash-asserts in Talents/Containers/Quests
to graceful nil) + Altoholic frames (guarded remaining getter results).
- DataStore_Characters: scan on login (was ghost-gated -> name/level/class never populated;
the core 'no character data' cause).
- Skills tab: cap inline professions at 6 (+N) so the strip stops overflowing into Cooking.
DataStore_Talents._GetTreeReference degrades to nil (was assert) when a custom class
(MONK, etc.) has no/partial talent reference data; Talents.lua skips background render
when GetTreeInfo returns no bg.
